Now these… these are a true slice of American roadside history.
This complete set of six 1959 Knox Oil “Blue Eagle” Oklahoma Indians glasses brings together striking mid-century design with a piece of vintage gas station Americana that’s getting harder to find—especially all together like this.
Each frosted glass features bold, colorful illustrations and names honoring historic Native figures and tribes, including:
- Quanah Parker – Comanche
- Hen-Toh – Wyandot
- Geronimo – Apache
- Hunting Horse – Kiowa
- Dull Knife – Cheyenne
- Ruling His Sun – Pawnee
The artwork is vivid and graphic—pure late-1950s style—with that soft frosted finish collectors love to display.
Condition
Very good vintage condition overall.
- No cracks or chips observed
- Graphics remain bright and well-preserved
- Light surface wear consistent with age and gentle use
- Minor fading or utensil marks possible on close inspection
A strong, display-worthy set.
Era / History
These were originally issued as part of a 1959 Knox Oil promotional campaign, when gas stations offered collectible glassware to customers—a golden era of advertising that built loyalty and left behind some of the most sought-after kitchen collectibles today.
The “Blue Eagle” tie-in and regional Oklahoma theme make this set especially desirable to:
- Gas & oil memorabilia collectors
- Mid-century glassware enthusiasts
- Oklahoma & Western Americana collectors
